The Brooklyn Connection

Episode Info

"The Brooklyn Connection" follows Albanian-American businessman Florin Krasniqi as he purchases arms in the U.S., then smuggles them to the Kosovo Liberation Army. Krasniqi, who says he has raised $30 million to "provide logistics for an entire army," is also seen schmoozing with such political figures as Wesley Clark and Richard Holbrooke. He concedes that "it's a thin line between a thug and a freedom fighter," but his mission is clear: "I have to see Kosovo independent," he says.
